A shared home, just one tap away.
Homeboard is a shared household dashboard designed to make everyday living a little easier, bringing chores, supplies, rent reminders, and important notes together in one place.
Living with housemates means sharing responsibilities, but household information can easily get lost in group chats or forgotten. I wanted to create a simpler way for everyone to stay organised.
What if accessing our shared home dashboard were as simple as tapping a keyring?
Homeboard connects an everyday object to a digital space through NFC technology, making household information just one tap away.
A simple, collaborative dashboard where housemates can check weekly chores, update shared supplies, keep track of rent, and leave important notes.
I created personalised, hand-painted NFC keyrings for my housemates, turning an everyday accessory into a physical shortcut to Homeboard.
This project reminded me that making something easier to access doesn't necessarily mean people will use it. Beyond usability, successful design also needs to fit naturally into people's existing habits.
